The 2019 Okayama Prefectural Assembly election (Japanese: 2019年岡山県議会議員選挙, romanized: 2019-nen Okayama Kengikai Giin Senkyo) was held on 7 April 2019 to elect the 55 members of the Okayama Prefectural Assembly.
Every four years, a total of 55 assembly members are elected to represent the 19 electoral districts of the prefecture.[1] The election coincides with the election for Okayama City Council. In 2019, 16 candidates in the Prefectural Assembly and City Assembly elections ran unopposed, and were elected without voting.[2]
The Liberal Democratic Party lost one seat in the election, but still maintained its dominant position after five independent members aligned themselves with the party.[3]
